I'm the developer of an Android calculator, called Algeo [1] and I wonder which part of it that makes it feel like slow/not snappy? I'm trying to constantly improve it, though UX i…

Pytorch and tensorflow is pretty big. It implies all state of the art research code is not written in Julia, so it is a non-starter for any neural network based project.

Because it only increases high single digit each release. If they keep up the 10% improvement for the next 10 release, we will reach a speedup of around 2.5 times. That's very smal…

I always wondered where the integral sign was coming from. This gives a very simple explanation: it's just the letter 's', the shorthand for sum!

This rings so true with me. I have a side project [1] that I try to promote and it always feels hard. Where do I start? Should I post comments in random subreddits? Should I write …

Congrats! It's about the same I make with Android with my app (a graphing calculator) [1]. Everyone says on Android you can earn less, I'm curious what's your experience will be. […

I don't really get the first part of your comment. You say an NN is "just" compression + kNN and does no representational learning. But finding a compression (a transformation in o…

Slightly related: I got the first C compiler restored and ported to modern C [1]. It runs on Linux and can call libc functions, though it is restricted to 32bit mode. [1] https://g…

Actually, MobileNetV3 is a supporting example of the bitter lesson and not the other way round. The point of Sutton's essay is that it isn't worth adding inductive biases (specific…

Back of a napkin calculation: showing OP 100 ads of blinds probably costs 0.1$ in the US. The cost of a blind is 100$ (I have no idea, don't live in the US). So if the probability …

As others said, the active number of downloads is way lower (50k). Even then, I'm pretty bad at marketing and have no idea how to grow it or optimize the monetization. It seems fro…

I have an android app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.algeo.alge... ). It brings in right around $500 a month. It is fun to develop, especially that I can dabbl…
